The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) is the white supremacist group that terrorized and murdered civil rights workers, particularly during the 1960s in the United States. Notable incidents include the murders of civil rights activists James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner in Mississippi in 1964. The KKK employed violence and intimidation to suppress the Civil Rights Movement and maintain white supremacy. Their actions contributed to the broader context of racial violence and discrimination during that era.
